   Outstanding food and flavors sorely absent from the Miami food scene. Generous portions. Great value from interesting wine and sake lists. Be aware, small and loud.

   Another incredible evening with Chef Pablo, Diana and the whole team at Dojo Izakaya. The food, its presentation, the service, and the attention to detail make for a truly incredible meal from start to finish! It becomes an incredibly elevated experience without feeling stiff or contrived. The food is as delicious as it is beautiful and innovative. Bravo!

   Upon arriving you can not help yourself on noticing the unpleasant smell that greats you. I commented this to the hostess and she replied that the smell comes from next door due to the construction that is going on. On to the food. I was pleasantly surprise to find all the food items that we ordered very good . Nothing struck me as outstanding, but all relatively good despite their very limited menu. The only hiccup that we found was my husband ordered the porkchops and they never arrived. Upon bring this up to the waiter he immediately apologized and not only bought them to the table but discounted them from our bill. Its a shame that a food item gets forgotten, and not served to a guest. Needless to say by husband was not a happy camper over this. Overall the restaurant does have potential if all of the above gets addressed by the staff.

   We loved everything about it. The food had so much flavor and depth. It did not have to be a lot to pack a punch. I can't wait to go pack to try the other dishes Service was excellent and they all know their stuff ask them anything. The whole team continued to work together. Everyone was present and making sure all was running smoothly.

   With every plate they delivered, they explained everything to enhance the experience. That said, the menu is limited and there is a lot going on in each dish and they will not adjust/alter any items. You take each item as it’s listed on the menu. If you don’t eat spicy foods, or have a shellfish allergy, for example, the menu becomes even more limited.

    Excellent food, as expected, since we knew we loved this chef’s other restaurant, Zitz Zum. Everything we tried was very tasty. Portion sizes were good. Service was very attentive. Nice selection of sakes. Ambience was very nice, sitting outside on Giralda, but inside looked nice, too. We will definitely be back!
